Target/Specificity | This PLA1A antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 329-358 amino acids from the Central region of human PLA1A. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | PLA1A Antibody (Center) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | PLA1A (HGNC:17661) |
---|---|
Synonyms | NMD, PSPLA1 |
Function | Hydrolyzes the ester bond of the acyl group attached at the sn-1 position of phosphatidylserines (phospholipase A1 activity) and 1- acyl-2-lysophosphatidylserines (lysophospholipase activity) in the pathway of phosphatidylserines acyl chain remodeling (PubMed:10196188). Cleaves phosphatidylserines exposed on the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane of apoptotic cells producing 2-acyl-1-lysophosphatidylserines, which in turn enhance mast cell activation and histamine production (By similarity). Has no activity toward other glycerophospholipids including phosphatidylcholines, phosphatidylethanolamines, phosphatidic acids or phosphatidylinositols, or glycerolipids such as triolein (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Secreted {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P97535}. |
Tissue Location | Widely expressed. Expressed in placenta, prostate and liver. Weakly or not expressed in skin, leukocytes, platelets, colon, spleen, lung, muscle and kidney. |

Background
Phosphatidylserine-specific phospholipase A1-alpha (PLA1A) acts specifically on phosphatidylserine (PS) and 1-acyl-2-lysophosphatidylserine (lyso-PS) to hydrolyze fatty acids at the sn-1 position of these phospholipids.
